  • Psychobilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease in Athens
    IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies Volume 5 – Issue 1 – Spring 2020 Psychobilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease in Athens Michael Tsangaris, University of Piraeus, Greece Konstantina Agrafioti, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The complexity and the bizarre nature of Psychobilly as a music genre and as a music collectivity make it very convenient for reconsidering several views in relation to subcultures, neo-tribes and scenes. More specifically, the case of Greek Psychobilly can categorically present how subcultural trends can be disseminated across gender, social classes and national borders. This study aims to trace historically the scene of Psychobilly in Athens based on typical ethnographic research and analytic autoethnography. The research question is: Which are the necessary elements that can determine the existence of a local music scene? Supported by semi-structured interviews, the study examines how individuals related to the Psychobilly subculture comprehend what constitutes the Greek Psychobilly scene. Although it can be questionable whether there ever was a Psychobilly scene in Athens, there were always small circles in existence into which people drifted and stayed for quite a while, constituting the pure core of the Greek Psychobilly subculture. Keywords: psychobilly, music genres, Athens, Post-subcultural Theory 31 IAFOR Journal of Cultural Studies Volume 5 – Issue 1 – Spring 2020 Introduction According to the American Countercultures Encyclopaedia, Psychobilly is a subculture that emerged in the 1980s from the unlikely combination of rockabilly and punk rock. The provocative and sometimes outrageous style associated with psychobillies (also known as “psychos”) mixes the blue-collar rawness and rebellion of 1950s rockabilly with the confrontational do-it-yourself style of 1970s punk rock, a syncretism infused with themes from monster and horror films, campy sci-fi movies, and even professional wrestling” (Wojcik, 2013, p.

  • 3 Questions for Local Band Whores
    ABSOLUTE EDITORIAL Hey loyal readers, here we are again with another jam packed issue for your enjoyment (4 more pages anyone?). First off, thanks to all our advertisers and contributors. I was going to try and keep track of all the show I've seen over the past two months but of course I dropped the ball. Here's what my stoner brain can remember (actually I wouldn't have remembered I went to half of these show if it wasn't for livevictoria). L.I.D.'s tenth anniversary show (way to go you old fucks). The Neo Nasties and Hong Kong Blonde who actually didn't get to play because a drunken idiot started a small scale riot resulting in 8 cops beating him with tasers and anyone else in the general vicinity got smashed in the head with tasers as well just for good measure ( I narrowly escaped a serious case of police brutality myself and will always wonder how the hell Jay Brown escaped that one unscathed - Hope your leg’s OK John). Cursed w/ Mare and Hunting Human (Holy fuck that Mare guy can scream) The Sweathogz w/ Mr. Plow Supertankers and Who Cares. (Who cares? I do. This dude is hilariously talented. A good show @ Legends, who knew?) The Vibrators w/ The Gutterdemons from Montreal (An amazing blast from the past with killer psychobilly ROCK VIXEN OF THE MONTH thrown in) SNFU w/ The Shivs and Married to Music (more like married to poosic, Chi Pig Kelly from was in rare form and wore like 20 different scary masks and funny hats) S.T.R.E.E.T.S.
